Ask HN: Are there any web services that allow JSON import and search?

2 points by xt508 11y ago ↗ HN

I'd like to be able to securely upload an arbitrary JSON file to the web, and then perform a full text search on the text contained in the JSON. If something like this doesn't exist, should I just build an open source service that does what I want?

Elasticsearch takes input in JSON format. It's not quite a web service, but could certainly work for your use case.

Does anyone know if there are any web services built around Elasticsearch that would do this?

Algolia might work?
